CHILDREN'S MARTIAL ARTS TRAINING IN CARLTON


Help your children develop confidence, skills and fitness to serve them a lifetime.

What does it take to be a champion? Can a martial art support a parent’s instruction?

The Gracie Barra Kids Program (for children aged 3-15) is aimed at building and equipping students with confidence, resilience, persistence, respect and focus in a cooperative, safe and fun environment. Our vision is to provide our students with skills, core values and a strong mindset to allow them to embrace challenges and excel in their endeavours in becoming real life champions.  

The outcome of continued childhood practice of Gracie Barra Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu goes far beyond the accomplishments on the mats. The discipline and excellence demanded by our instructors often carries over to the child’s behaviour at home and at school.

Our Kids Program is typically subdivided in three different groups to accommodate students of different ages and skill levels: 

  • Little Champions I (3-6 years old),
  • Little Champions II (7-9 Years Old),
  • Juniors & Teens (10-15 years old).

Benefits of Joining our Children Martial Arts Program

The first time you come to our school you will be welcomed by our staff. Please arrive 15 minutes before class so you and your children have enough time to prepare for practice. The class will start on time and your child will be asked to walk to the training area where the instructor will be waiting for him or her. One of the assistant instructors or a senior student will be assigned as a helper to assist your child in performing the drills and activities. Parents are encouraged to stay and watch the entire practice.

"There is no losing in Jiu-Jitsu. You either win or you learn."
